World's Fastest Level up!

I clicked my tongue while facing the extra boss that suddenly appeared in front of me, the Nameless Knight.

In the first place, why did the extra boss appear at this time?

Extra bosses were far more powerful than the normal dungeon bosses and they only appeared when various conditions were cleared. And according to my prior investigation, there shouldn’t be any extra bosses that appear in this dungeon, and yet…!

However, truth to be told I knew the reason why. It just meant that I was the first person to encounter this extra boss. And it could be inferred from the system sounds I heard earlier that the conditions to make this extra boss appear were quite complicated.

Well, it’s no use even if I think about that now. What’s most important was whether I could beat this boss or not. Because when I used [Appraisal], the recommended level to subjugate this boss is level 1000. Thus, it would honestly be difficult for me, who was at level 700, to win.

Even so, I can’t not fight it. Because the boss room won’t open until either the boss or I was killed. And more than anything—

“_“

“tsu”

The Nameless Knight approached me with a silver sword in its hand.

“Tch, I have no choice but to do it!”

I could only resolve myself. Because now that it has come to this, there is no other option than to defeat this guy.

Thus, with Yumemi Dagger in my hand, I prepared to fight. First of all, I will try to receive the sword swung by Nameless Knight with my dagger.

However—

“Damn, so heavy!”

The power transmitted by the overwhelming physical strength of the Nameless Knight coupled with the weight of the sword itself was what made its attack very heavy.

Although I couldn’t properly stop its attack with only my status and my dagger, somehow I managed to deal with that attack by parrying it.

“—tsu!”

However, the onslaught of Nameless Knight won’t end just like this.

This was probably because, different from a high orc that holds its club with both of its hands, the Nameless Knight held its sword only with one hand. Thus, it could swing both swords in a short span of time, one after another. Even so, the power far surpassed the club. Then, I avoided its attacks by a hair’s breadth.

However, at this rate, this was going to be a long defensive battle. That’s why I needed to counterattack at some point.

“Now!”

I swung my dagger to the enemy’s flank when I found a small gap from its onslaught.

Clank!

“…Are you serious?”

But, the result is harsh.

My attack was easily repelled and it only scratched its armor.

“_“

“Agh!”

In regards to me who was still perplexed by the fact that my attack could only scratch its armor, the Nameless Knight attacked me with an unexpected blow. It released a powerful kick with its right leg after feinting an attack with its sword. Somehow, I managed to guard with both of my arms but my body was easily blown away.

“That hurt…”

Sounds of cracking could be heard the moment I received that kick. Although it seems that my bones didn’t break, I don’t think I would be able to stay like that if I received another attack like that.

As evidence, my Hp was reduced from 5650 to 4980 by that blow even though I guarded it with both of my arms. Well, I guess this was the difference in ability between me and the Nameless Knight.

However, I was able to grasp the peculiarity of the enemy with the current flow of the fight. The Nameless Knight was most likely the type of monster that has a high attack and endurance in the term of status.

Still in the term of agility, mine was far higher than it. And the reason I wasn’t able to avoid the previous attack because that attack was so unexpected.

This means I should use the same plan as when I fought the high orc before. It was to avoid the enemy’s attack with all my might and counterattack when I found a gap to do so. And I would need to target its elbows and knees because it should be difficult to protect those joints, even with armor.

“Well, from now on, I won’t let you do as you like.”

And then, the tense second round has begun.

From there, the repetitive offense and defense continued.

I persistently slashed the Nameless Knight with my dagger over and over again while evading its attacks. Still, I wasn’t the only one whose attacking rather, my attack was inferior to the Nameless Knight.

The attacks released by the Nameless Knight were so destructive to the point of if I eat even one of its attacks, I would surely lose. On the other hand, I haven’t seen any sign of progress even after attacking it dozens of times. Still, I repeatedly attacked it without giving up.

Then, with my concentration gradually increasing and my nerves tensed up to the limit, my attacks started to overwhelm the enemy little by little.

“A little more…”

Perhaps because of my effort, the area around both of the elbow parts of the Nameless Knight’s armor was weakened as such. I was sure if I could hit it with a decent attack once more, I should be able to destroy its armor.

And then, with my concentration increased to the limit, I didn't miss my chance to attack it when the moment that I have been waiting for arrived.

“It’s here–!”

That moment, the posture of the enemy wielding its sword was more disorganized than usual. I held my dagger high over my head before swinging it down at the enemy’s elbow.

Then, the enemy’s armor broke as intended, and immediately after that, I succeeded in slashing its right arm. With this, I only needed to slash its left arm and I should be able to defeat it—

“Eh?”

–Just when I thought like that, someone or something suddenly grabbed my left wrist in this place where there were only me and the Nameless Knight. Hence, of course, it was the Nameless Knight that grabbed my wrist—

“_-“

“tsu!”

Even though the expression of the Nameless Knight was hidden by the helmet, somehow I know that the Nameless Knight was laughing.

“Don’t tell me—“

Was the previous series of actions planned!?

Because the Nameless Knight now it couldn’t beat me in terms of speed, it used its right arm as bait to create a gap. Then it grabbed my left wrist that stiffened after releasing the powerful attack by holding my dagger high over my head.

I couldn’t understand how a monster could have this much intelligence and how could it easily sacrificed its own body for the sake of creating a chance. However, the fact that I really thought about that means I have fallen into the enemy’s trap. Really, monsters were an existence that no human could understand.

That was the end of my thoughts. Because a sharp kick from the Nameless Knight fell onto my belly without being able to guard. And I was blown far to the rear by the force of that kick.

“Gaha!”

The air leaked from my lungs as my back hit the walls. And I intuitively knew that blood was flowing from the back of my head.

My HP decreased from 4980 to 1315 at once. And I wasn’t even able to move properly anymore.

Even if I drank a medium HP recovery pill that I have right now, my HP would only recover about 1000HP at most. In addition, I needed to wait 10 minutes to drink the second one.

The Nameless Knight picked up its sword that was temporarily thrown to the ground with one hand and slowly started walking toward me. I guess this was the last grace period until that guy arrived in front of me.

Is this the end…? In this kind of place?

Although I don’t want to admit it, the reality was cruel as I saw the existence that going to give a finishing blow to me was just ahead.

Compared to the Nameless Knight, even though I could somehow move my body a little, I can’t move as swiftly as before. Which means, there is no chance of winning.

“No…I think there is still one more chance…”

I remember one thing that could make it possible. It was a power unique only to me—[Transfer Within Dungeon].

The wall my back was leaning against right now was actually the door of the boss room. Although normally it could only be opened by the death of the challenger or the boss, it may be possible for me to escape to the other side of the door with [Transfer Within Dungeon].contemporary romance

However, I don’t know what would happen after that if the boss didn’t die and there are no challengers. But I can’t afford to care about that right now.

Aa, that’s right. I will just do that. Because this was the best move I could utilize in this situation. A smart and right choice.

That’s why I am…
